"New" Wheels before the Clubman arrives?
Hi all. Thought I'd tap the genius of this thread before I do something stupid.
My "on the way" Clubman is coming complete with 16" S-Winders. I got them becaase I didn't need to add any more money to my already excessive purchase. I figured I save the extra fincancing cost and shop around. Looking at the For Sale here, I found some 17" WebSpokes that might work for me. I assume that because the configurator offers the same design as a wheel option for the Clubman, that these would fit and be just great. How do I know for sure? Please dispense your infinite wisdom.
Second, is the no TPMS thing an issue? (I've included the FS post below) Should I keep looking?
Thanks for the feedback!

2 months old, (1,200 miles) off of my 2007 R56 MCS
R98 17" Webspoke Composite Rims & Dunlop SP Sport DSST Runflats.
Tire size 205/45/17.
These wheels are in new condition, no curb rash or scratches, tires
are also new condition (2 months old)
They may need to be balanced, not sure if the dealer did that
when they put my Konigs on.
Note: These rims have the 14mm bolt holes for the R56 07" models.
Sept 06 and older will have 12mm bolt holes, so I'm not sure if they
will fit R53's and R50 models. I'm sure there is a form on here somewhere
for that
Also: I do not have the TPMS sensors installed, those went on
my new rims, you will have to use the ones on your old rims or purchase a set.
$80 each aftermarket or $120 OEM.

The TPMS sensors are on the inside of the wheels. You'll need to take off the tire to get at them. If you want to use the stock wheels as a second set of wheels you can also purchase TPMS sensors from Tire Rack for under $200.
